26. Mr. Pickthorn

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies, under what pro vision of the Foreign Jurisdiction Act, 1890, Orders in Council conferring British citizenship upon inhabitants of a foreign country are promulgated.

I am not aware of any Orders in Council made under the provisions of the Foreign Jurisdiction Act, which confer British nationality upon the inhabitants of a foreign country.
